I took The Test and it was 95% sure I was a slow-moving, tree-dwelling mammal, that hangs from branches using three toes, and urinates on itself. Wow, it's like they know me personally.

I did that a while ago. It said I was female.

86% confidence of being male.
Hrm.

23. Does Canada suck?

- Yes
- Yeah

It's a man, baby!

Nope, just scary.

Did everyone get this picture, cuz, you know, I'm FREAKING out here. That doesn't look 80% male to me, the bastards.

86% confidence that I am a dude. Maybe if I stop wearing lipstick, I can get 90%.

80% confidence that I'm a chick. Piece of shit.

You'd have to go to the confessionals quite often though.

90% female. And strangely it got all my friends right. The bastards.

Maybe I should starting hitting on you.

Back when that test first came out, it told me 80% likely to be Female. I feel so pretty. :/

Yay! I'm a female!

I'm 86% likely to be female.

"Women are more likely to realize that clams are alive (89%) than men (only 87%)."

We are SO different.

I think that most of the questions are just in there for padding, and the bulk of the guesswork is done by questions like "Does your middle name end in a vowel". Because if you think about it, the majority of ladies' names end in a vowel, while mens' are more likely to end in a consonant.

Who the hell doesn't know that clams are alive? They should separate them into a third category: "We don't know what sex you are, but we do know that you're a fucking moron."

86% female.

Of course, I knew it would tell me I was a woman. That's just the story of my life.

86% female. I was surprised I was that girly.

Only 86%? You're like a bloody macho man compared to me.

It pegs an awful lot of us as 86% female.

But clams aren't living if they fall to their deaths or drown. I prefer falling clams!

80% man.

20% "Not quite Human".

It picked me as a man... with 80% certainty, strangely enough. The funny thing is that it said it was 80% certain, but the graph it showed me placed me at the dead centre of the sample. *sniff sniff* Is that bullshit I can smell?

Like I said earlier, it probably uses questions like "Do you carry stuff in your pockets?" , which is basically "Do you have a handbag?" to do the main judging, and then skews it using the other questions, given what other people have answered in the past. So if it has discovered that most women tend to think the monkey on the right will win, if someone selects the right hand monkey the next time their score will be weighted slightly towards the "woman" end.

the monkey on the right was all angry looking
he's so ferocious he is leaping at the other monkey
the other monkey is a coward, he's clinging to his branch and another branch to be safe...
flying monkey wins

also, that one question about "which comes next"...
the one with squares and circles switching alternately, what's the right answer?
either you pick the square because you think the shapes is the right order, or you pick the diamond because of the not so obvious color progression...
red square, orange circle, yellow square, green circle, blue square, indigo circle...
ROYGBIV is the color spectrum of visible light...
so basically, they're saying that one of the sexes instinctively chooses purple because it's the next color in the spectrum...
is it men because we're so scientific, or girls because they spent their childhood hugging rainbo brite?

may the lynching begin!

my math tutor(she's female) tells me the guys have better "spacial perception", meaning that we recognize shapes and see 3-d images better and stuff.

I guess girls just like colors, i mean, they always are saying stuff like, "thats not off white, its eggshell!"

i wrote an article for my college's newspaper about the "thermodynamics of owning a penis", describing in excrutiating detail why it is necessary to lift the seat before peeing to avoid the little spots...
it recieved accolades from my peers, and random people i pointed to the artcle and said "mine" to.

my roommate attempted a corrolary that peeing standing up three times+ a day since birth gives men a greater sense of kinimatics, spatial reasoning, and physics.

the mind boggles

Men have better spatial perception to keep their asses alive in fight or flight. I can tell within an inch if I'm going to clear the bumper of another car when I'm pulling out of a parking space. This is why women are thought to be crap drivers despite the fact that they are ususally more safety minded: Most of them don't have the same sense of spatial perception. Also, most women think of themselves as being "In the car", whereas most men think of themselves as being "On the road". Women, as a rule, have a different sense of tactile space as well.

my gut instinct wanted to go with the right shape...
but the elitist schmuck of a nerd in me made me pick the geek answer

No. That is not bullshit. It is the result of several years of testing which displays a mean average. I said most. I did not say all. I did not say "you". Stop being so goddamned defensive. It's not supposed to be "intimidating". It's just a mean average of some results of testing men and women psychologically and physically.

86% male

That does seem to be a rather popular percentage.
